Thomas Berger

Librarian Note: There is more than one author by this name in the Goodreads database.

Thomas Louis Berger was an American novelist, probably best known for his picaresque novel Little Big Man, which was adapted into a film by Arthur Penn. Berger explored and manipulated many genres of fiction throughout his career, including the crime novel, the hard-boiled detective story, science fiction, the utopian novel, plus re-workings of classical mythology, Arthurian legend, and the survival adventure.

Konrad Lorenz

Konrad Zacharias Lorenz was an Austrian zoologist, ethologist, and ornithologist. He shared the 1973 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine with Nikolaas Tinbergen and Karl von Frisch. He is often regarded as one of the founders of modern ethology, developing an approach that began with an earlier generation, including his teacher Oskar Heinroth.
Lorenz studied instinctive behavior in animals, especially in greylag geese and jackdaws. Working with geese, he investigated the principle of imprinting, the process by which some nidifugous birds (i.e. birds that leave their nest early) bond instinctively with the first moving object that they see within the first hours of hatching. Although Lorenz did not discover the topic, he became widely known

Sono nato nel 1980. Ho studiato da ragioniere, ma poi mi sono perso per strada, inseguendo i simboli come un bimbo che corre dietro alle farfalle.

Abito a Selz, in provincia di Gorizia. Crescere e vivere vicino al confine mi ha dato la possibilità di comprendere che la realtà non è risolvibile in una visione univoca. Il mondo è fatto di contrasti e sfumature, non c’è una verità unica ma tante voci diverse. Voci che possono cercare di sopraffarsi l’una contro l’altra, oppure accordarsi in un coro armonioso. Forse è anche per questo che sono affascinato dal mondo dei simboli, un argomento che studio da anni in tutte le sue sfaccettature. L’espressione simbolica è infatti una costante dell’essere umano. Nei simboli si può trovare un tratto comu
